    Pretty sure some slopmaster asked an AI chatbot to make a catchy headline for the quantum mechanics we’ve known for years.

    You have a quantum cat-in-a-box. The cat is in a superposition of being alive and dead. You make the “human choice” to open the box. Now the cat turns out to be dead, and it actually died 10 minutes before you open the box. So you can kind of interpret it as your choice affecting reality 10 minutes backwards.
